10 performers are inducted into Rock Music Hall of Fame

NEW YORK -- Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and seven other rock 'n' roll pioneers, Thursday became the first inductees into a rock music hall of fame that has no home.

The 10 performers were voted into the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame by a group of more than 200 music critics, historians and record company executives last year and were to be formally inducted in a ceremony at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, said Bob Altshuler, a hall of fame spokesman.
